Meant to say that: both are windows 7. Alt-A-Tab? But 'A' isnt a modifier.
I suggest you stick with F12 since you use it for other things. Looks like based on default settings
- Shift+F12
- Shift+Ctrl+F12
- Shift+Ctrl+Alt+F12
- Shift+Alt+F12
are still available. And it would be nice to be settable in HotKeys like the others.
Note that, really, it does not have to be, technically, "cycle between local windows", but more like "shift focus to local window manager". Once that happens, Alt+Tab and Shift+Alt+Tab will be serviced by local window manager. As will Window+Tab and Shift+Window+Tab. This would require say Shift+F12, then
let go of keys, then Alt+Tab. So it takes one separate key combo extra to start cycling. For example, what I do now, when focus is on the remote window, is click the task bar of the local windows, then Alt+Tab works locally.
One more detail. When you do Alt+F12 (or click the icon) to go into view only, all the keystrokes STILL go to the remote window manager. Instead of that, in view only, it would be nice if
- Alt + Tab
- Shift + Alt + Tab
- Windows + Tab
- Shift + Windows + Tab
went to the local windows manager, much like they do for any other window of any other program that's in focus.
